Terrafom is an amazing tool that lets you define your infrastructure as code. Under the hood it's an incredibly powerful state machine that makes API requests and marshals resources.

In this talk, Eddie Zaneski, manager of developer relations at DigitalOcean, will dive into the inner workings of Terraform and examine all the elements of a provider—from the documentation to the test suite. You'll walk away with the knowledge of how to contribute to an existing provider or create your own from scratch.

Zaneski will also take a look at some of the things he encountered while working on the DigitalOcean provider and the lessons learned from the community.
